Proceeding contribution from Lord Davies of Oldham (Labour) in the House of Lords on Thursday, 12 June 2008. It occurred during Debate on bill and Committee proceeding on Energy Bill.
Energy Bill
I am grateful to my noble friend, who, as ever, is knowledgeable about these matters and has identified exactly the concept to which we are working. The licensing authority is a charging authority and, as long as the licence obtains, it will have the right to demand the necessary, appropriate and defined payments. That is the significance of the moment when the site is defined as closed and secure and the state takes responsibility for it thereafter. It means that the liabilities of the company are at an end at that point.
